Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.

"As the industry continues to see dramatic growth in the delivery of next generation, fuel efficient engines, we believe the acquisition of AeroCision is highly strategic to Bromford and fully supports our vision of building a fully-integrated, diversified engine component supplier," said Rowan Taylor, Liberty Hall's founding Partner. "AeroCision provides Bromford with additional machining capabilities, extends Bromford's geographic presence into the U.S. and India and increases Bromford's content on our targeted next generation engine platforms. We look forward to creating further strategic value through this exciting acquisition."
